I will
write about my favorite pictures today.
I already wrote
(I think) what I am South Korean, I lived 13 years and then I came to South
America. I almost visit to Korea like every 2 or 3 years. So, I am missing my
family every days, (specially the food what my mom makes to me).
The last
year, I visited my country. I was so happy and I proposed to my family to
travel another country to wide my experience and to make good memories with my
family. We had many candidate, China, Japan, Spain, Italia, etc… in those
candidates, I wanted to go Japan, because I love Japanese Architectures and there’s
philosophy, like Sou Fujimoto, Tadao Ando and Toyo Ito.

So, we go
to the Japan (The cost was more chipper then another countries, I think it was
for that reason, in that time, Japanese money was very chipper for ABENOMICS). So
we went to FUKUOKA, Japan. Which site with many nature thermal spring. My parents
love that. So our first importance of chose hotel was, Be near of thermal
spring.
In the
hotel, we could wear Japanese traditional cloths and take some experience of
Japanese traditional room style. they were 2 beds and traditional japanese living, i forgot the name (i think it was Tatami, i´m not sure), they sit in that floor with nothing.
Tatami (?)
And we
visited to Kumamoto Castle. That was big castle fully Japanese style. I impressed
whit those curves and purification style, I felt Minimalism in that castle (the
Korean Castle are with many ornament and very colorful). There’s
my picture with my family.

Gyeongbokgung, Seoul, Korea
Almost we
went to the market which located near of Kumamoto Castle. We had opportunity to
buy some gifts and souvenirs. I bought Japanese style chopsticks. I like use
it. And we ate Traditional Japanese dish there looks like looks so pure and
concise, there was delicious, but it was very salty in same time. I ate them
with 4 cups of water. I’m not sure of the traditional dish is salty or the chef
who made it lost his tongue and lost his taste feel. The dish was not
fulfilling.

We stayed 4
days in Japan. In those time, we know many place, many people and many Japanese
culture. I really impressed about a difference between Korean Culture and
Japanese Culture. Before the visit to japan, I thought the culture will be similar
or no many difference. But it was totally another country with Korea. The peoples
are very calm and quite, every street we visited was very clean and no garbage
in there. Maybe that place is touristic place, but being touristic place, in
Korea or another country I visited, they were many or less garbage in the
street. I really surprised with that.
If I had
another opportunity to visit to Japan, I will go to know Tokyo, the capital of
Japan to know the difference with Fukuoka
